Why do locums earn more?

This is the third of a three part series about locuming – whether it’s for you or not – things to consider.  

This week we’re going to look at why it appears locums earn more per hour than employees doing the same job inside a clinic.

This episode is for you if you’re about to start out as a locum or you’re employed at a clinic and maybe feeling a little resentful because a locum might, at first glance, be earning a truckload more per hour than your clinic is paying you.

This is Julie South - host of Paws Claws and Wet Noses.
